After a cupcake-flinging fiasco at a photo shoot for a local magazine, Melanie Cooper and Angie DeLaura agree to make amends by hosting a week-long corporate boot camp at Fairy Tale Cupcakes. The idea is the brainchild of billionaire Ian Hannigan, new owner of SWS, a lifestyle magazine that chronicles the lives of Scottsdale's rich and famous. He's assigned his staff to a team-building week of making cupcakes for charity. It's clear that the staff would rather be doing just about anything other than frosting baked goods.

Great mystery
I was worried that this series would sort of Peter out, becoming less interesting as it went, but I was happily wrong. This was a great mystery and still managed character development even 15 books in. Really enjoyed and do recommend. You could definitely start here, too, though you wouldn’t have all the context.

So sad and not the usual from this series
While the narrator was wonderful as always the content of this addition to the series was too focused on the loss of the artist and the facade of a perfect couple. Plus we lose Oz as a regular. No real mystery behind who did it and more of the same old antics.
